- NEW!

THE BEST suggestions I can offer:
1) Read the ads for the flea markets, yard sales and garage sales in the weekly local papers.
2) Check the pawn shops [a/k/a "hock shops"]. Many times they have used instruments at a pretty good prices.
THE ONLY names I remember and am a lille familiar with - through the "Antiques Road Show":
Gibson Guitars
Martin Guitars.
These are two different companies.
Just to get "a feel for the market" and what's going on, make an appointment with the music teacher at a local high school. He or she should be of enormous help.
If that teacher doesn't know, ask for a recommendation of someone who does know.
(AND DON'T forget to "tip" that wonderful person with a pretty good gratuity - no less than $10.
Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed answering it!
VTY,

Tonight is the night I'm buying a guitar! You decide which one- Yamaha FG700s, or Hohner HW350?
Why?
